Munier Slide 21

AHRQ Collaboration to Support the Partnership for Patients (P for P)

Text version of slide presentation from a National Advisory Council meeting.

Key AHRQ Role

Text Description is below the image.

  • Partnership for Patients is Step 1 in galvanizing hospitals to improve their performance.
  • But there are still few widely-accepted national measures; Step 2 is to provide hospitals with a better way to assess their performance locally while using nationally-accepted measures.
  • AHRQ's Common Formats, particularly when embedded in EHRs [Electronic Health Records] (meaningful use), will provide an efficient tool for local improvement that will allow trending over time and comparison across hospitals nationally.
